APPLICATION REVIEW PROCESS A SUMMARY Below is a summary of the review process. Detailed procedures and requirements for each step in the site development application review process may be found in the Lockport Development Code and, for rezoning, special uses, and planned developments, the Lockport Zoning Code. Amount of actual time it takes to review an application request will vary depending on the accuracy of the required submittal items, complexity of the proposal and the time of subsequent resubmittals and plan revisions. 1. PRE-APPLICATION MEETING Every applicant is encouraged to participate in a pre-application meeting to initiate the review process for each new development, zoning change, special use permit or subdivision. The pre-application meeting allows the applicant to familiarize themselves with the City s development objectives and procedures, and to learn about any special circumstances that may exist or be applicable to the subject property. The request for pre-application meeting should be made to the City Planner not less than one (1) week prior to the desired date of the conference. Staff conducts pre-application meetings on Tuesday mornings.
